Ernst Mayr, in his book What Evolution Is (2001, p.290), builds a conceptual bridge between sexual selection and natural selection with this definition of sexual selection:
quote:
Selection for the attributes that enhance reproductive success.
Would you dare to walk across that bridge?

Its a no-go
Hello Hoot Mon,
Doesn't this proposed topic correlate to a debate that you are currently embroiled in?
Aside from the extreme brevity and the fact that another thread is already open, the post lacks substance.
I can't promote this topic at this time.
